Clean it up IMMEDIATELY. Redirect when he starts to eat it. Don’t leave him in the yard by himself and supervise closely (you should do this anyway). I would talk with your vet to make sure he’s eating a proper diet for his breed and age, as well.

PK Dennis This is just something that puppies do, especially if they come from puppy mills.
The only thing that truly works is getting to the poop before he does. Take him out to poo on a leash and move him away from h I should stool before he can eat it, and then pick up and dispose of it so it isn’t available later.
He will most likely grow out of this behavior.
I Try To Feed My Cats Tuna/seafood Flavored Wet Foods As Sparingly As Possible, But…
I try to feed my cats tuna/seafood flavored wet foods as sparingly as possible, but Sebastian is becoming picky to the point where he will only eat his dry food (Nutro high-protein) or tuna (Blue Buffalo gourmet) or a now discontinued shrimp/chicken/duck combo (Wellness). He will eat some chicken canned foods from those brands, but not always and not much of it. Is it unhealthy for him to have tuna about 4 times a week? He gets 1 3oz can a day, split into 2 servings and about 1/4c of dry food.
I’ve tried mixing a small amount of other food in with the tuna but then he refuses to eat any of it.

debra yuhasz I was taught, too many years ago, that a seafood heavy diet it not good for male cats. Can cause kidney problems. I have four male cats and I take it very easy on the seafood. Asher is very picky, but when he gets hungry enough he will eat. We’ve had several stand-off’s over canned food. I give him 20 minutes to start eating a new food. Then I take it away and put it out again at the next feeding time. I leave dry food out all the time. Canned is once a day at 8 p.m. He constantly tries to convince me that he’s starving at 7 p.m. and the new food is no good. He’ll even knock the dish on the floor. So far he’s letting me win.
My Dog Has Been Having Diarrhea For About 4 Days Now, And Is Only Eating…
My dog has been having diarrhea for about 4 days now, and is only eating at night. He will happily eat two meals worth at night. He has been having super smelly farts. I noticed that the farts seem to come mostly after he eats (several an hour for a couple hours), but through the rest of the day, its about once every few hours. His diet doesn’t really change, but he does love spending a lot of time in the back yard.

Dawn Ferara, DVM I recommend having a vet do an exam, fecal float (to look for parasites) and possibly x-rays. Diarrhea for 4 days in a dog this large is not an emergency but he should be seen by a vet soon.

PK Dennis Often when a dog decides to stop eating it means that they are going to die. Eleven is an old dog when it is mixed with wolf. Since the dog has been seen by a doctor I would suspect there is not much to be done for this dog save to make him comfortable (manage his pain).
So sorry to hear of his troubles.
I Tried Washing It Off But It Starts Getting Wet/oily Again Before Shes Even…
I tried washing it off but it starts getting wet/oily again before shes even fully dried. she shakes her head every once in a while and doesnt like it when i try to examine it. while giving her a bath, i couldnt find any cuts or irritations. She has normal urine and stool and eats and drinks fine too. A couple weeks ago we found her biting her paw to the point where it was almost raw so we had put an ecollar on her. and just about 2 days ago we noticed that the top of her head looked as if someone had spilled a small spoon of oil on her head.

PK Dennis I would take her to a vet for evaluation – sounds like she has an allergy or skin condition developing and you will need help to resolve it.
In the mean time I would remove all grains from her diet, including treats. Dogs don’t need grains and don’t digest them well. And while not every dog is allergic to grains the can cause just enough impact on the immune system that other allergies can get a food-hold. Go to a good pet store (not grocery store, big box store, nor a pet store that sells puppies) and ask to be shown to the grain-free dog food area. Then start reading labels, you want a dog food that has real meat listed as the first 2 (or even better, 3) ingredients. Real meat is easy to spot, it will say lamb, elk, bison, turkey, salmon meal, whitefish meal, etc. (meal is the entire animal ground up and dried).
Don’t buy any food that lists ‘by products’ in the ingredients – you would be paying premium price for an inferior product.
Avoid chicken and beef – many dogs are reactive to these sources of protein.
If the vet recommends Benadryl use Zyrtec instead – I find that it works better for dogs.
Good luck
He Also Has Been Panting And Having Periods Of Breathing Rapidly Which Tend To Happen…
He also has been panting and having periods of breathing rapidly which tend to happen with him. He is eating and walking and going to the bathroom normally. He suffers from hip dysplacia and arthritis but I cant tell if it is pain related. The concerning thing is the labored breathing.

Jana Bon, pale gums is an emergency. It means something isn’t right with the blood or blood flow. Please see a vet now.
-
Bon Jeaven It cost too much if im getting her in clinic?
-
Jana If you don’t it might cost you her life. Pale gums is a serious matter. At least call them and ask. At least have physical exam done and you can then discuss what else needs to be done.

I just need some advice help n e thing..
Advice is to get this animal the hell away from any other animal for a very long time. You are the responsible party here and you managed to get your injured dog in another fight!
No it’s my brothers dog and my dog it’s mom and daughter
I am asking for dog owners no I did not manage to let them get in a fight they got in a fight cause randomly they don’t get along
My advice would be to get to the vet asap again. Then keep the dogs separated at all costs. If that means revoking one, the. So be it. I would also consider dog training and a behaviorist for both your sake and the sake of the dog. This is a very serious situation and you need to treat it as such. You need to be extremely responsible and diligent about this. If you can’t live this dog like a family member, the. Find her a home where they can. She looks to you as her pack leader- safety is included in that description. Pleas see the vet and find a trainer and a behaviorist. Please.
Take her back to the vet to make sure she is getting enough meds, etc.
Females will fight to the death. It is your responsibility to make sure these dogs NEVER have an opportunity to fight again.
And why are you allowing them to coexist? You should be crating and rotating which dog is out at any given time. It is YOURS and your brother’s job to prevent this from happening.
I have to point out that there is NOTHING RANDOM about why and when dogs fight. You are just not experienced enough to spot what is setting these 2 off. Are they both spayed? Do it if the answer is no. Until you can get a behaviorist in to spot the problem, and train YOU and your family in how to fix it you have to keep these girls apart. If you can’t afford a behaviorist that will come to your home to work with you then you have to find a new home for one of these dogs. Seriously.
